Sign in to disble this ad
So once I sprained my ankle in college. It was a third degree sprain, and I used a cane for awhile. My grandfather had one that he used, so I used his. Who would have known that this would have been a chick magnet. I had dreads, a cane, and long goat. Unbelievable magnet. So fast forward to now. My broken foot is recovering nicely. A buddy of mine lent me his medical walking cane, which is made out of aluminum and not really very cool. Anyone have any cool wooden canes? Anyone have one that they'd be willing to give, sell for cheap, or loan me until I recover?

You might also look into flea markets and garage sales to find an old one. |

Carried it on a plane to Taiwan for a tournament, but they made me check it in baggage on the way back. Must have been the characters for "white tiger" (my styles name) carved into it...

It still bother me, so occasionally I use one day to day, and if I am going to be walking, hiking a great deal, I use a walking stick.
Didn't like the aluminum cane, so I bought one from here: http://houseofcanes.com/
Almost lost it in a revolving restaurant in Atlanta right after I got it. They sat us down at a table for drinks before a concert, and I hung it on the rail next to our table. Low and behold when we were ready to leave 45 minutes later, there was a different rail next to our table and it didn't have my cane hanging on it.
